Summer is the time we enjoy grilling and adding fresh fruit to our menu, and this smoky-sweet salad is the best of both worlds! I like to marinate the fruits for extra flavor before I grill them. -Nancy Heishman, Las Vegas, Nevada

I'm allergic to nuts, so I substituted the walnuts in this recipe with chopped pistachios. It was still delicious!

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover fruit. I had a bunch of peaches and nectarines that were about to go bad, and this salad was the perfect way to use them up.

This grilled stone fruit salad was a huge hit at my last barbecue! The flavors were incredible, and the fruit was perfectly caramelized. I'll definitely be making this again.
